I-broadcast: broadcasting scheme for vehicular ad-hoc networks
(Wichita State University, 2010-05)With the rapid development of wireless technology and the wide availability of low cost wireless devices, the domain of mobile computer networks has expanded in the recent past. Mobile ad-hoc networks promise to be the ... -
Ibeaconmap: Automated indoor space representation for beacon-based wayfinding
(Springer, 2020-09)Traditionally, there have been few options for navigational aids for the blind and visually impaired (BVI) in large indoor spaces. Some recent indoor navigation systems allow users equipped with smartphones to interact ... -
Ice particle trajectory simulation
(Wichita State University, 2005-12)Large ice particles shed from an airframe can cause damage to downstream aerodynamic surfaces and aft mounted engines. A simulation tool was developed to compute the trajectories of shed ice particles and determine the ... -
An IDEF0 model for a terrorist resistant Global Supply Chain (GSC)
(Wichita State University, 2009-05)After the infamous terrorist attacks on September 11th 2001 in the United States, the world has become increasingly vulnerable to terrorist activities. International businesses that function through Global Supply Chain ... -
Identification and Improvement of medical care inefficiencies at a resident clinic
(Wichita State University. Graduate School, 2011-05-04)A resident primary care clinic serves as both a teaching facility and source of health care to lower income patients. A local primary care resident clinic has been identified in order to analyze how effectively access to ... -
Identification and mitigation of bottlenecks in complex production system
(Wichita State University, 2010-12)A production system is a system where the raw materials are converted to finished products. A production system is classified in to two types based on the products processed namely single product production system and ... -
Identification of nonlinear systems in frequency domain
(IEEE, 1975-11-01)A frequency domain technique for identifying a class of nonlinear systems is presented. The class of nonlinear systems we consider in this paper consists of a power series nonlinearity sandwiched between two linear systems ... -
Identification of preliminary context-based policies for short-term inpatient care work planning
(Wichita State University, 2017-04-28)The short-term inpatient care work planning problem consists of assigning daily tasks to hourly rounds. This problem is solved by healthcare workers at the start and throughout their workday. Due to the fast pace of ... -
Identification of shoulder joint clearance in space suit using electromagnetic resonant spiral proximity sensor for injury prevention
(Elsevier, 2020-05)Shoulder injury is one of the most common phenomena that occurs for astronauts when they are training for space flight. During training, astronauts are required to wear a full space suit, known as the extravehicular mobility ... -
Identifying elastic wave polarization and bandgaps in periodic solid media
(Elsevier Ltd, 2023-08-15)We present a new computational method to accurately identify the elastic wave propagation modes and polarizations in periodic solid structures and metamaterials. The method uses the eigenvectors associated with each ... -
Identifying motivational factors in robot-based assist-as-needed rehabilitation
(Wichita State University, 2021-04-02)INTRODUCTION: Globally, 2.41 billion people can benefit from rehabilitation due to various injuries or diseases (WHO, 2019). Traditional rehabilitation relies on techniques that are physiological in nature (e.g., assisted ... -
